Ambivalent Right

Strongly agree

Yes, but with strict training on how and when to use the equipment

The emphasis on strict training resonates with the Ambivalent Right's belief in law and order, coupled with accountability and responsible governance. This position reflects a pragmatic approach to equipping police forces, recognizing the potential necessity of such equipment while ensuring its use is governed by clear, stringent guidelines to prevent abuse and ensure public safety.

Agree

Yes, but only in response to extreme situations

This answer aligns with the Ambivalent Right's preference for a balanced approach, allowing for the use of military-grade equipment in extreme situations where regular police capabilities are insufficient. This perspective is shaped by events like the 1992 Los Angeles riots, where the scale of violence overwhelmed local law enforcement, suggesting a conditional need for enhanced capabilities.

Agree

No, extreme situations should be handled by higher agencies with specialized training and equipment

The idea of delegating extreme situations to specialized agencies aligns with the Ambivalent Right's cautious stance on military-grade equipment in policing, recognizing the need for expertise and restraint in such scenarios. This approach is informed by a desire to balance effective law enforcement with the minimization of civil liberties infringements, drawing from historical examples where specialized intervention was necessary and more appropriate.

Slightly agree

No

While generally supportive of law enforcement, the Ambivalent Right may agree with restrictions on military-grade equipment to prevent potential overreach and maintain public trust. This stance is informed by a conservative principle of limited government intervention, emphasizing the importance of not militarizing domestic police forces beyond what is necessary for public safety.

Disagree

Yes

The Ambivalent Right, characterized by a mix of traditional conservative values and a cautious approach to government power, might be wary of police departments having unrestricted access to military-grade equipment. This concern stems from historical instances where excessive force has been used against civilians, such as during the 1960s civil rights protests, suggesting a need for balance between law enforcement capabilities and civil liberties.

Very strongly disagree

No, and abolish the police

The proposal to abolish the police is fundamentally at odds with the Ambivalent Right's support for law enforcement as a pillar of social order and security. This extreme position contradicts conservative values of maintaining societal stability and protecting citizens, making it highly disagreeable to the ideology.
